Camera Inspection System
Stemmer Imaging AGRequest Info
The Ricoh SC-10 camera inspection system from Stemmer Imaging AG is a human assistance system that improves manual assembly in manufacturing environments.
The camera is designed to both provide assembly instructions to operators
and verify each step has been completed correctly. A set of work instructions are loaded into the camera and displayed on a monitor while the camera scans the workpiece. The human operator follows the on-screen assembly instructions and the system compares the result to the correct stored image before the next step can be taken, which reduces errors, helps operators learn new tasks, and provides a digital audit trail of all operations.
The RICOH SC-10 series automatically checks the assembly status and identifies incorrect or missing items by using pattern matching, using color verification, or identifying the presence of textures. In addition, when used in conjunction with a barcode scanner, it can record the part number and select the job instruction set, and then record the serial number and user ID. Each completed step is recorded in a CSV file with the time spent and an optional image. The camera features built-in software, which can be set up with a mouse and keyboard via USB.
